West Ealing station gets ready for Crossrail

West Ealing station is getting a face lift for the arrival of Crossrail in 2019. The new station will benefit from major improvements including a bright, spacious ticket hall.

The glass and steel structure will let in natural light and will be surrounded by a large canopy. Other improvements include a new station footbridge with lifts and stairs and longer platforms. The work will take around two years to complete.

According to Hamptons' Residential Research Report published in March 2016 (An Insight into Ealing), Crossrail is still at the forefront of buyers' minds in Ealing. The Crossrail effect has had a considerable impact on house price growth in the Ealing Borough and will continue to do so as the project nears completion.

The report outlines that average house price growth over the last 5 years has increased by 41% on properties within 500m of West Ealing station, which is good news for homes at Jigsaw and the benefits this will bring in the near future when four Elizabeth line services an hour start running from 2019.
